Thursday Night Football Expert Bets
The Bengals look to stay alive in the division race as they head to Baltimore to take on the Ravens. The Bengals sit two games out of first place. They have two of their next three games being against the teams they trail in the AFC North. Winning these next three games would drastically change Cincinnati’s outlook on the season.
Cincinnati
The Bengals enter this game 4-5, and they have yet to beat a team with a winning record. Joe Burrow has kept the score close against tough opponents, but that hasn’t helped his team in the standings. Tonight, they revisit an opponent they hosted in Week 5, in a game where they lost by 3 in overtime.
Ravens
Baltimore is also chasing the Steelers in the standings, and in a race this tight, every divisional win is important.
Lamar Jackson missed practice yesterday, but he will play tonight. Having him take it easy is probably the smart move as he has to play on short rest. However, it’s concerning considering that he only threw the ball 19 times on Sunday. He also left the pocket just three times.
Knowing that Lamar’s knee has been giving him troubles, bettors shouldn’t expect too much from him in the run game.
Best Bet: Lamar Jackson Under 8.5 Rush Attempts (+105)
Baltimore has the worst pass defense in the league, but they win games because no one can keep pace with them. Joe Burrow will light up their secondary, but it won’t be enough to pick up the win. It should be a highly entertaining game, but bettors should expect an outcome similar to Week 5.
Thursday Night Football Expert Bets Recap:
Joe Burrow 300+ Passing Yards (+185)
Over 53 (-108)
Lamar Jackson Under 8.5 Rush Attempts (+105)
